It all depends on your next "big boi pc". Can you re-use the PSU. SSD. HDD. Case and so on. (will it use DDR3 or 4 memory)

is this custom or prebuilt? if this is custom, its easy to take the graphics card out.

 as long as your new motherboard has two pci slots, then you can put two graphics cards in.

If it's a "big boi PC", I sure hope it'll be a new platform running DDR4.

Basically what he said then. Drives, PSU, case fans, and even the case if you want to, can be reused for your next build. Heck, if you have an aftermarket CPU cooler, you might be able to get the mounting hardware for AM4 from the manufacturer if you ask them.

When everything in your "big boi pc" is new, just sell the old one. (or find a use for it, while keeping it working) There are ALOT of uses for an older pc like that.
